I write answers on Quora that help UPSC and other government exam aspirants.
Nevertheless, I hustled my way through the coaching program.
I looked around me
Do drop in a message, would be happy to talk.
“All of these students are great from an academic point of view. They have always scored 90%+ during their school days, some have even scored 9.6 CGPA and above during their 10th boards.”
All achievers in their own way.

2017 June - I appeared for the first time for the UPSC Prelims (after a year-long preparation)
I said, “Yes! I believe so.”
“I, too, was an aspirant, 20 years back. I have met board toppers, state board toppers, and college toppers with more than 9+ CGPA who prepare for this exam.”
I see lots of pictures of women who have huge clits are they real or what?
“But, it is nearly impossible for one to predict who will make it to the ‘holy list’. Yes! I can say that if an aspirant who has done X, Y, and Z can increase their chances of selection, but it is just not enough. There is always a matter of luck (or, probability).”
I was cycling from one of my coaching institutes back to my PG.
It lasted approximately 10 months.
Have you ever followed through being bi-curious?
The struggle was real. The teacher would non stop go through his lecture, and explain the concepts/ theory/ ideas etc.
I was alone in Delhi back then
500 students in each batch. God forbid if you were late to the class - you would have to push your way through the seats. (Old aspirants reading this know which institute I am talking about).
But, then it hit me hard.
If one says, they can help you crack the exam with X AIR, it is difficult to do so.

I prepared for the next 3 years (2016 to 2019)
I remember the very next day my coaching institute professor telling me -
I hurriedly opened the holy PDF.
2016 I graduated from college. The same year I began preparing for the UPSC.
There is no mathematical formula where you know that if the inputs are controlled, you can achieve X outcome.
Relatively in a better position after my exam failures, but a void still exists!
I lacked a mentor when I needed one.
I did not move for the next 30 minutes..
Immediately after this conversation, I left the institute.
.
And entered the park.
And, now working as a digital marketing freelancer for international clients.
I joined two coaching institutes - One for mains preparation and one for my optional subject.
I vividly remember that evening.
And, after all, it was a matter of great pride and respect.
Cleared multiple of them
A gazillion thoughts running through my mind.
In my head, it was a do-or-die situation for me.
Your credentials do not matter!
Worked for a marketing agency
“Suryansh, let me tell you something. Do you feel the best of the best students from all over India prepare for this examination?”
A sense of grief and toil had taken over me.

After checking the PDF, I chained my cycle to a lamp post ..
So, yes, the UPSC is considered the toughest exam in the world because there is a ‘luck’ factor coupled with subjectivity in the exam process.
And, so I began preparing for the exam with high hopes and determination.
Dropped them
It is almost impossible.
All the best!
